...is that none of the countries you mentioned claim to offer their citizens freedom of speech or religion. They aren't being hypocritical. We are, if we permit this blatant hate mongering.
We're being hypocritical if we say we offer freedom of speech/religion and then don't restrict a form of expression?
I think I see what Anti is trying to say - allowing that kind of hate speech is antithetical to freedom of religion, in a sense. But you're right about the free-speech issue.
Unfortunately this is a fun little instance of the two freedoms conflicting.
I was about to leave the house when I posted that and didn't have time to word it properly!
